Hi Everyone,

Instead of introducing another pentatonic shape, this lesson breaks down a variety of ways to practice moving between the two pentatonic scales we've covered so far. There are more options than I've laid out in this exercise, but I think this gives a great start for those of you looking to mesh scale shapes together in a seamless way.

And of course, you don't always HAVE to slide between shapes, but sliding makes it a little more fun and helps connect the scales in a tangible way.

You can just google the word "metronome" and you'll find a variety of options.

Post your questions, elations, frustrations etc below or on the community forum.

Do you have any videos on identifying root notes in a song?

Not "in a song" per se, but my music theory monday course combined with learning to write music and ear training will get you very far toward that goal

Scott, not wanting to make your head swell too much, but these lessons are awesome! I'm taking weekly lessons primarily using the Jerry Snyder Guitar School books, and your Caged Lessons are such a great compliment. Really meshes well!
